is my body fuc*ed?
If you get behind my car and look at is you'll notice that the rear wheels are tilted the same way.
\ \ instead of / \. I jacked the car up and i honestly cant see anything bent. What could cause this. Any help would be appreciated.

Well that means that your passenger wheel has negative camber and your driver wheel has positive camber. Check for unusual tire wear to see if your wheels have been positioned like this for a while. And also, something can be bent ever so slightly, and that'll throw everything off. Get an alignment.

Re: is my body fuc*ed? (litterbox)
well i bought the car like this. the owner told me the wheel was like that bcause it had a camber kit. well to my dismay there wasnt a camber kit. The eg rear suspension isnt camber adjustable is it, so would an allignment help? and also what is a compensator arm?

theyre should be a shop in your area that can align a dropped car- here in mpls area there is only one shop who will touch dropped cars- hoover offa washington avenue- they aligned it and straightened out my camber issue- i beleive all they do is throw some washers in there friend simple enough - as for it being adjustable any one who knows alignment should know tricks to the trade -

since there is no camber kit, I'm pretty sure it's been powerslided into a curb.
no your body is not f*cked, but you might need a new wishbone

The washer trick will not work because the wheel is cambered the opposite way.
